Journalists (aka Reporters)?
The Press have become the Press_titutes, they do it for the money.
I know what you're gettin' at, and Reporters isn't the word I would use.
A "Reporter" REPORTS the News, and a good one tries to report the facts of Who?, What?, Why?, When?, and Where? using proper English and Grammar.
Generally, the only W that may be slightly fluid is the Why?, the rest are easily limited to factual representation.
Journalists do none of these, they simply tell the reader what and how to think. That's why I call them Urinialists.

True, however I would like to add that I believe the biggest reason Journalists Lie is the Arrogance of Eliteism.
Aside, I do regularly credit the "Associated Presstitutes" in my comments and posts.
